Korg KONNECT

Mobile PA system with many extras

The Korg KONNECT loudspeaker system convinces with its compact, yet powerful design. The PA system is a complete solution with great sound and high comfort. The one-piece speaker offers everything you need for making music, whether you are a keyboard player, DJ or moderator. With a 6.5" woofer and two tweeters, the Korg KONNECT generates up to 180 watts of output power. A bass reflex construction provides rich, powerful bass. It has four input channels that can be used for both microphone/audio sources and instruments. Each channel has separate volume controls.

Korg KONNECT's built-in voicing function allows you to select complex EQ presets that optimize the sound for instruments or background music. With a special APP (supports iOS 8.1 and Android 5.0 or higher) it is possible to control the PA system remotely with a smartphone or tablet. This makes it possible to control KONNECT from any listening position without having to make adjustments on the rear of the unit.

In addition to a wide range of functions, the Korg KONNECT also supports Bluetooth audio (channels 3 / 4 ) . This means the speaker system can be used wirelessly for any form of live performance.

The high-end SHARC DSP effect unit is also integrated. The effects can also be conveniently and clearly adjusted via the KONNECT APP. A Feedback Supressor and a Center Cancel function can be found in the KONNECT as well as a Phase and Pan Swich function. Thanks to the 35 mm speaker flange, the Korg KONNET can also be mounted on a speaker stand.

SUMMARY

A practical catch-all mini sound system in a single box.

“Overall the Korg Konnect does as claimed, producing a clean sound for both voice and music at low-ish to moderate levels. For a gigging band it might come in useful as a mini monitor or as a stand-alone PA for front-room or small coffee-bar gigs, and it might also make a useful extra speaker for those pub gigs in L-shaped bars, where having a small speaker push some sound around the corner can help. And when it’s not doing any of that, you can use it as you home sound playback system ot TV soundbar!”
